From your cruise ship you will be transported to Cairo to begin your exploration of the Sakkara step pyramids and tombs. The Sakkara pyramids include the Black Pyramid & the Red Pyramids.
The Black Pyramid of pharaoh Amenemhat III who ruled from 1855 to 1808 BC. This pyramid is only one of three remaining of the original eleven that were constructed at Dashur. The Black Pyramid has collapsed on the exterior due to the elevation being close to sea level. The interior passages ways and rooms are still intact.
The Red Pyramid located at Sakkara was the second pyramid to be built and is the third tallest every built, the only two taller are at Giza.
Then you meet the buggies and start self driving in the desert around the pyramids. What an exciting way to view the ancient wonders. These custom buggies are capable of whisking over the dunes at speeds over 50 mph.
Lunch will be provided during the tour. Horseback riding is also available if you should desire.
At the conclusion of your tour, you will be transported back to your cruise ship.
